I am happy for St. George getting the green light, but at the risk of being a wet blanket, I am afraid it may be too little too late for the entire area as it’s going to prove impossible to separate them from the crime that will affect both the same now and in the future to come, especially since we’ve all but guaranteed that the leadership in BR will remain fixed in a permanent state of hopelessness, and that’s going to have a real bleed over effect in St. George as well as the rest of the surrounding areas.

Truth is, we cannot run from any of this. We are going to have to tackle it head on OR you just have to leave the entire state and make a better quality of life for yourselves. Unless people plan on erecting a giant wall with a moat and alligators with .50 cal turrets mounted in random areas to keep the criminal and ugly at bay, this is going to eventually take over everywhere.

St George is a chance to fix things.

The organizers originally wanted to fix the EBRP school system and, then, form their own Independent School District. They were told “go make your own” to the former and “you need a city” for the latter.



It took as long as it did because the city and the school board have been putting up barriers to try and prevent any reform that takes money or control away from them.


If the parish fails, it can be laid directly at the feet of people who blocked reform in order to retain control.
